Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For two angles x and y to be supplementary, the sum of the angles must be 180°
x+y = 180
x = 180-y... 1
If the measure of the angle is five times greater than its supplement this is expressed as:
x = 5y…. 2
Substitute equation 2 into 1
5y = 180-y
5y+y = 180
6y = 180
y = 30°
Hence the measure of the supplement is x = 5y
x = 5(30)
x = 150°
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
12-7=5
90 is a tenth of 900. You need ten 90's to make 900.
-2x + 6y = 6
6y - 6 = 2x
6(y-1) = 2x
(1/2) * 6(y-1) = 2x * (1/2)
x = 3(y-1)
------------
If, x = 3(y-1),
-7 * 3(y-1) + 8y = -5
-21 * (y-1) + 8y = -5
-21y + 21 + 8y = -5
21 + 5 = 21y - 8y
26 = 13y
y = 26/13
Therefore: y=2.
----------
If y=2,
x = 3(2-1) = 3

Answers:
x=3 and y=2.
